Guest Dave Gruber, member of the Aurora City Council, explains what the socialists and progressives on the Council want to do regarding paying for lawyers for illegal aliens, inc those with criminal records, to help them avoid deportation.
Even so, the co-sponsors of the ordinance, councilmembers Crystal Murillo and Alison Coombs, plan to formally introduce the ordinance at a full city council meeting in early 2021. Our goal is to support our immigrant community to create a perception of safety in our community, Murillo said.
The session, which preceded the Aurora City Council s official December 21 meeting, featured dueling testimony from a top Colorado Immigration and Customs Enforcement official and Arash Jahanian, a high-profile lawyer from an immigration and civil-rights law firm.
Jahanian, who works at the Meyer Law Office, testified that the ordinance wouldn t affect the Aurora Police Department s ability to assist federal immigration authorities with criminal law enforcement, but would only restrict the department s cooperation when it comes to civil immigration enforcement. Denver has a similar policy on the books.
Why a cityâs new marijuana delivery plan is an important move cannabis leaves and stem

During the pandemic, services that deliver food and other supplies have become invaluable. Some companies in the industry, such as the Philadelphia-based GoPuff, also do beer and liquor deliveries for adults. In states like Colorado, where cannabis is legal and regulated somewhat like alcohol, home delivery is the next frontier of a new and thriving industry.
This is exemplified by a new ordinance approved by the council of Aurora, Colorado on December 7, which will allow marijuana deliveries to begin in the city in January. Cannabis delivery is not uncommon in the US, but it is usually a privilege reserved for medical cannabis patients. Aurora appears to be the first Colorado municipality authorizing delivery services for nonmedical consumers. Yet the significance of this measure reaches far beyond customer convenience.
